Moda terms over 20 years: Public: - puts in 91% of renovation costs, makes back 9% - 10c for each $1 spent. - Net: $-900M Dundon: - puts in 9% of the renovation costs - makes between $9-16 for each $1 spent. - Net: ~+$900M-$1.6B Blazers called it a non-starter.
Collected some berries in my little coffee cup. The black ones are super tart and the little golden ones are kinda mild and sweet.
Homemade pops! They are very tart 🤪 Lemon, lime, mixed berries, cucumber, honey (not enough i guess?), water.
Why won’t the team release the actual numbers? Their current lease requires them to keep the arena “first-class” at THEIR expense. An itemized budget would sort every line into “necessary” vs “upgrade.” The “necessary” column IS the bill they already owe. The plans are evidence. Thats why.

latest proposal from JT flowers is to delay service cuts by a year by pulling $11 million from operational reserves. that’s a great proposal that people should go testify in favor of tomorrow at the trimet board, and also I think sourcing those funds from PCEF should have been a no-brainer
Added a new "stamp" to my Coffee Doggo map for Alberta Street Coffee! I'm up to 28 coffee shops tried in #Portland Here's the map if you're curious: https://maps.app.goo.gl/aUaFSypcc4T76Gkn6?g_st=ac Also if there's a more vibey place I can track stuff like this I'd love to hear about it!
